Osteoarthritis in my thumbs

Options

I'm getting a bit worried and stressed my job like most involves my hands. I have been recently diagnosed with moderate osteoarthritis in both thumbs. Some days are worse than others. I'm nearly 60

My concern is what if I can't work because of the increasing pain.

Any help appreciated a new world for me

    Before I had my hip replacement recently I took turmeric capsules on a friend's advice and I do believe it did help with the OA in my thumbs. Might be worth a try?

    Some of us wear various typed of gloves to support our hands? Would that help too @cedarrose?
